Orange you glad it's going

By Chris Regan

I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.

It's majestic when it blows in the wind, it feels nice you wash it under the shower and are headbanging away to some music but most importantly it has provided years of entertainment when Jacinta tells me to cut it off. 

I will admit that because of the above this gives reason for keeping it as long as I have but the end goal was always this to say goodbye and give it to someone else in need, whilst I still can.

Cancer is a scary thing, it's a word that no one likes to hear (aside from the people who like hearing about their horoscopes). It's a word when people mention it, you feel scared not just for the person that may be telling you they or someone may have it, but also for yourself and how quickly life can change and remind us that we are all mortal, because cancer unlike many other diseases is truly one of the only ones that I can almost guarantee that everyone has lost someone to. It's the Big C that everyone talks about with statistics, though I do enjoy some stats I'll give a different perspective. In a world where cancer didn't exist how many extra moments would you have with the people that have been lost, how many extra snags on the bbq how many more cheers would you hear. Cancer sucks though, they live through our memories... The smiles and tears they still bring are reminders that they truly meant something to you as much as you would wish you could just go over and say g'day or pick up the phone and pretend life was the same as yesterday.

If this has touched you this is why stats are not needed to be mentioned when we all don't want to become one. 

My sole goal for all this was to be able to shave my hair and allow it to go towards helping others, if you would like to contribute even a $1 though I will be greatly appreciated
